Teliani Valley Saperavi is an authentic Georgian red wine from the renowned Kakheti wine region, located in eastern Georgia. This area is widely regarded as the heart of Georgian winemaking and is celebrated for its centuries-old wine tradition, where craftsmanship, heritage, and respect for nature play a central role.
The wine is made from 100% Saperavi, a native Georgian grape variety prized for its deep color, powerful aromas, and rich flavor structure. Thanks to its intense character and expressive fruit profile, Saperavi is one of Georgia’s most esteemed grape varieties and an excellent choice for lovers of full-bodied, elegant red wines with an authentic identity.
Teliani Valley Saperavi is carefully vinified in stainless steel tanks, where the wine undergoes a short skin maceration of just 10 days. It is then matured without oak aging, allowing the pure character of the Saperavi grape to remain fully preserved. The controlled fermentation in stainless steel highlights the fresh fruit expression of the grapes, resulting in a wine with a vibrant, harmonious, and fruit-driven character. With an alcohol content of 13.5%, this wine offers a beautiful balance between power and elegance, delivering depth and structure while maintaining freshness and finesse.
